BTW, it would also be possible to implement the page break option for the other frame types. The following definitions do that (courtesy of Herbert [1]): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \usepackage{fancybox,framed} \makeatletter \newenvironment{shadowboxed}{% \def\FrameCommand{\shadowbox}% [EMAIL PROTECTED] }{% [EMAIL PROTECTED] } \makeatother \makeatletter \newenvironment{ovalboxed}{% \def\FrameCommand{\ovalbox}% [EMAIL PROTECTED] }{% [EMAIL PROTECTED] } \makeatother \makeatletter \newenvironment{Ovalboxed}{% \def\FrameCommand{\Ovalbox}% [EMAIL PROTECTED] }{% [EMAIL PROTECTED] } \makeatother \makeatletter \newenvironment{doubleboxed}{% \def\FrameCommand{\doublebox}% [EMAIL PROTECTED] }{% [EMAIL PROTECTED] } \makeatother ------------------------------------------------------- It would be not too hard to implement this, but unfortunately I don't have time. Other potential improvements for InsetBox would be: make the background color configurable on a per-inset-basis (redefine shadecolor before the inset within a \bgroup ... \egroup pair).
